Ahead of the presidential campaign flag-off of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Abia State on Monday, the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Benjamin Kalu, has charged the members of the campaign council to work hard to ensure victory for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and all APC candidates in Abia State in the coming election.

Addressing the campaign council members made up of the party’s governorship candidate, Chief Eric Opah, party Chairman, Hon. Chijioke Chukwu, all the candidates of the APC in the elections, Directors and Secretaries of the campaign council directorates, stakeholders and indeed, members of the party in Abia State who converged on his country home, Bende on Friday, Kalu said that the party must ensure that President Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima win in the State.

He said: “We are working hard for ourselves. APC is a moving train. We are progressing. The party belongs to you and I. We are not doing one man show. We will work to make everyone proud and happy. We are working hard against all odds”.

The Deputy Speaker who is also the Director-General of the APC Presidential Campaign (South) 11 emphasized that a vote for the President is a vote for the reconstruction of Igbo land and for a seat in his government.

“A vote for Mr. President is a vote for the reconstruction of Ala Igbo. When we vote for him, we are voting for our seat in his government. So, we must ensure our votes count in this coming election. We must ensure Mr. President Tinubu and all our candidates in Abia win,” he said.

Kalu further announced that after the flag-off on Monday, the campaign will move into the nooks and crannies of the 17 local government areas with the Renewed Hope message, with rallies planned in all the local government areas.

“After the flag off on Monday, we will begin to enter the nooks and crannies of the local government areas with the renewed hope message. We will do rallies in all the local government areas. We are working hard for our vote. Everyone should get ready,” he said.

The Deputy Speaker stressed that every member of the council has work to do, assuring them of support.

“I want you to know we have work to do, each of us. We are here to support and stand by you. Why we need to flag-off is that without it, we cannot go to the trenches,” he said.

Kalu also directed members to secure buildings in their various local government areas and wards to serve as campaign headquarters for the Presidential campaign.

“I also encourage you to look for buildings in your various local government areas as campaign headquarters of the Presidential campaign for Mr. President. The same in your various Wards. We will do local government tours to campaign for Mr. President,” Kalu said.

The highpoints of the meeting included the distribution of APC branded T-shirts and other campaign materials to the stakeholders and members across the 17 local government areas of Abia State.
